Nigerian singer Fido has responded to the unexpected removal of his hit song, Joy Is Coming, from Spotify. The track, which dropped on December 14, 2024, had already amassed over 21 million streams and held the No. 1 spot on the TurnTable Top 100 for five consecutive weeks. However, as of February 20, 2025, it has mysteriously vanished from the platform.
Fido’s Statement to Fans
Taking to social media, Fido reassured his fanbase, Oosha_FC, that his team is actively working to restore the song:
“Dear Oosha_FC, We want to take a moment to thank you for your love and support for ‘Joy Is Coming.’ We’ve noticed that the song has been temporarily unavailable on Spotify, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.”
“Please rest assured that we are working tirelessly to resolve the issue and ensure that the song returns as soon as possible. Your patience and continued support mean the world to us.”
“In the meantime, stay connected with us for updates, and we can’t wait for you to enjoy ‘Joy Is Coming’ again very soon!”
Why Was Joy Is Coming Removed?
Despite growing speculation, neither Fido, Oosha Records, nor Spotify has revealed the reasonbehind the removal. While fans are left in the dark, many believe it could be due to licensing issues, copyright disputes, or internal label conflicts.
Oosha Records Partners with EMPIRE
Amid the uncertainty, Oosha Records has announced a major partnership with global distribution powerhouse EMPIRE. This strategic collaboration is expected to expand Fido’s reach and amplify Oosha artists on a global scale.
While fans wait for Joy Is Coming to return, Fido’s partnership with EMPIRE signals a promising new chapter for his career.
